For the first time ever I just had cocktails, dinner and socializing (Olympic watching) with my wife and her sister without having to leave the area to smoke. They were a little focused on it at first but after a couple of hours they didn't even notice when I was puffing away. They accepted the fact that it was a behavior that didn't impact on them and so they just ignored it. As a long-time banished smoker this was fantastic. I am no longer a pariah!
